NOTES TO PORTFOLIO OF INVESTMENTS

September 30, 2022 (Unaudited)

Note 1 Valuation

Securities for which market quotations are readily available are valued at their market value. All other securities are valued at their fair value, as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees (the “Board”) of EQ Advisors Trust (the “Trust”). In accordance with Rule 2a-5 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, the Board has designated Equitable Investment Management Group, LLC (“EIM”), the investment adviser to the Trust, as its valuation designee (the “Valuation Designee”). As Valuation Designee, EIM, subject to the oversight of the Board, is responsible for making fair valuation determinations in accordance with procedures (the “Pricing Procedures”) approved by the Board. EIM’s day-to-day responsibilities as Valuation Designee are performed by a valuation committee established by EIM (the “Committee”).

EIM has appointed Equitable Investment Management, LLC (“Administrator”) to oversee the calculation of the net asset value (“NAV”) of each series of the Trust (each, a “Portfolio” and collectively, the “Portfolios”) and their respective share classes. The Administrator has entered into a sub-administration agreement with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (the “Sub-Administrator”) to assist in performing certain duties, including the calculation of the Portfolios’ NAVs.

Due to the inherent uncertainty of the valuation of securities for which market quotations are not readily available, the fair value of such securities may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market for such securities existed. Various inputs are used in determining the value of each Portfolio’s assets or liabilities carried at fair value. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels below:

 

   

Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets for identical assets

 

   

Level 2 - other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices of similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)

 

   

Level 3 - significant unobservable inputs (including the Portfolio’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)

A summary of inputs used to value each Portfolio’s assets and liabilities carried at fair value as of September 30, 2022, is included in the Portfolio of Investments for each Portfolio. Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an investment’s assigned level.

Transfers into and transfers out of Level 3 are included in the Level 3 reconciliation following the Portfolio of Investments for each Portfolio, if any. Transfers between levels may be due to a decline, or an increase, in market activity (e.g., frequency of trades), which may result in a lack of, or increase in, available observable market inputs to determine price.

The inputs or methodology used to value securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. An investment’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input, both individually and in the aggregate, that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The Committee has the ability to meet and review reports based on the valuation techniques used to value Level 3 securities. As part of a review, the Committee would consider obtaining updates from its pricing vendors for fair valued securities. For example, with respect to model driven prices, the Committee could receive reports regarding a review and recalculation of pricing models and related discounts. For those securities which are valued based on broker quotes, the Committee may evaluate variances between existing broker quotes and any alternative broker quotes or other pricing source.

To substantiate unobservable inputs used in a fair valuation, the Committee may perform an independent verification as well as additional research for fair value notifications received from the pricing agents. Among other factors, particular areas of focus may include: description of security, historical pricing, intra-day price movement, last trade information, corporate actions, related securities, any available company news and announcements, any available trade data or other information. The Committee also notes the materiality of holdings and price changes on a Portfolio’s NAV.

The Committee reviews and considers changes in value for all fair valued securities that have occurred since the last review.

In accordance with the Pricing Procedures, events or circumstances affecting the values of Portfolio securities that occur between the closing of their principal markets and the time the NAV is determined may be reflected in the Trust’s calculation of a NAV for each applicable Portfolio when the Committee deems that the particular event or circumstance would materially affect such Portfolio’s NAV.

 

56


Accounting for Derivative Instruments:

Derivatives accounted for as hedging instruments must be disclosed separately from those that do not qualify for hedge accounting. Even though the Portfolios may use derivatives in an attempt to achieve an economic hedge, the Portfolios’ derivatives are not accounted for as hedging instruments because the Portfolios account for their derivatives at fair value and record any changes in fair value in current period earnings. All open derivative positions at period end are reflected on each respective Portfolio’s Portfolio of Investments.

For more information on each Portfolio’s policy regarding valuation of investments and other significant accounting policies, please refer to the Portfolio’s most recent semi-annual or annual report.
